This just had me smiling. I am a bit of an adrenalin junkie, but with age your mind will always tell you when enough is enough.

But I think I would probably have a go at this, looks like a right laugh, now where to find some bungee…..

This has to be one of the funniest things I have seen on the internet in a long while! I think Greg Sommer (AKA Skull Man ) is awesome! Watch the video below.

BoxWars, Cardboard Wars? Why do it?

Well the First reason is all about Rocking!

The Second reason is all about Rocking Large!

The Third reason is all about Rocking Big Time!

Still no idea what is going on? Well its a creative outlet for people, build cardboard costumes so you can defend your right in Cardboard wars!

Check out Skull Mans site – BoxWars.TV

At 10 am UK Time at the Royal Festival Hall in central London Ben Ainslie will be announcing ‘his plans post-Olympic Games’.

If you read the sailing press at all, you will know there was a leak from the AC a few days ago, essential a new AC team “Ben Ainslie Racing”!

Well lets lock on and find out what’s happening at 10, I hope that its a new AC team that will go on to be a full AC72 team, but who knows??

Ok, so its been a while…. I have been busy with the new job and get that all sorted.

Saw this video a few days ago and its awesome, so thought I would share it out with you guys. If you are having a bad morning this will make everything seem right in the world, maybe on for a few minutes.

So a little game here that arose at the last regatta week that I did, which kept us amused on the not so windy days and kept the smile on our faces when snatching defeat from the jaws of victory – its called C*** Bowman *.

Its a simple game to play, all you need are a set of eyes and a bunch of yachties, maybe a camera too for extra points. The idea is to find people from the yachting community wearing sailing items that your “Rockstar” bowman would wear, you know the sort of things; White sunglasses, shorts with 3/4 length thermals, knee pads etc etc…

Points are gained for items spotted, but extra points can be gained for where and when the item(s) are spotted.

For example, if you spot someone wearing a climbing harness

• on a boat – 1 point,
• pontoon/marina – 3 points,
• bar/pub – 25 points,
• bar/pub after midnight – 100 points.

All points are doubled if you can get a picture!

So let your imagination run and see what you can spot out there at Cowes Week.

Items spotted at the last Regatta I did…

• White Sunglasses – so so many people get this wrong!
• A whole crew on a 65 footer in Bright White Oliskins – even the shore kit was white.
• Someone with 5 different boat names on different bits of clothing he had on, each one a super yacht/race boat that by the looks of him he has never been on.
• Full oliskins being worn in a supermarket.
• Someone racing in white trousers/slacks, shirt, tie and blazer – yes I have a photo to prove it!

So get out there and see what you can find, I will start a points system out soon.

So what has Mr Awesome been up to the last few weeks? Well would you believe it, he has started MotoCross

Some great footage here of Footage of Chad Reed’s spectacular crash on the opening lap of the second 450 Class moto at the Lucas Oil Motocross Championship’s Spring Creek National in Millville, MN, on July 16.

Chad you are truly Mr Awesome – Yeah Bloody Nice

Reed had just assumed the lead, looking to take his fifth win of the season, before losing control of his bike and flying upwards of 50 feet through the air. Despite the frightening fall, Reed came away virtually unscathed, and after collecting his breath, returned to action. After crossing the line in 34th of 35 riders, Reed fought his way into 14th by the end of the moto. The footage is fromv of SPEED/Lucas Oil Productions

Now I know I do have a few superstitions, but most of it is just nonsense really, but what about the guys from the Extreme 40 sailing circuit?

I knew about some of these before, but Rabbit?? What is all that about?

here is a good forum for loads of Sailing Superstitions

Ok so its been a while, but Mr Awesome has been having a little beach break, everyone deserves a holiday once in a while?

Well we found where Mr Awesome has been and as always he was doing some awesome stuff whilst on the beach and someone got some footage for us!

So where has Mr Awesome been this week? He has been at the baseball, being a boss as usual, watch the video – Awesome!

You know what its like when you are at a sporting event, you always need the toilet, beers/drinks, food when something awesome is going on, not if you are Mr Awesome though, cos you will always be the centre of attention, plus you get the drinks and snacks in and make that awesome one handed catch!

Get in there Mr Awesome, you know how to be the Boss at anything or any place you are! Yeah Bloody Nice!
